Magnet
IP69K
RFID CODING OPTIONS:
The RFID coding is offered in two types and can be either coded by series or uniquely coded.
Type 1: Master Code - by series (any actuator will operate any switch) this is used when unique door activation is not required, but the
benefit of RFID makes it virtually impossible to be overridden or by-passed by simple means.
Type 2: 32,000,000 Unique Codes - the switch is factory set and used when unique activation is required in areas where there are many
interlocked doors and security of individual areas is required.
The MGL combines magnetic sensing and RFID technology to provide non contact operation and high anti-tamper coding. In addition an
electromagnet is used to lock machine guards.
Only when the actuator is in the correct position can the lock be achieved and the safety outputs closed.
The switch provides two safe switching outputs for use with popular safety relays as well as a semi conductor auxiliary signal to indicate the door
position.
There are 2 LEDs that offer 5 diagnostic functions to the user.
The switch is “Power to Lock” and therefore consideration must be given in the event of a power failure to machines where a run down time is
present before the hazard is removed.

DESCRIPTION:
The MGL range of Non Contact RFID Coded switches has been developed in order to provide and maintain a high level of functional safety whilst
providing a reliable magnetic door interlock.
Flexibility for holding force is provided by the provision of 2 different switch sizes - Heavy Duty (1100N (F1Max) Stainless Steel, 1500N (F1Max)
Plastic and Die Cast) and Medium Duty (600N (F1Max) Stainless Steel, 1000N (F1Max) Plastic and Die Cast) to cover all applications.
Coding is achieved by using magnetic and RFID techniques and both principles need to be satisfied for the switch to operate safely.
The MGL range will connect to the majority of popular standard safety relays to achieve up to PLe/Category 4 to ISO13849-1.
Offered in Stainless Steel 316, high specification robust Plastic or Die-Cast Metal housings the MGL switch can be used in almost any environment
including high pressure cleaning following contact with foreign particles.
The Stainless Steel 316 version has been designed with a Stainless Steel magnet and IP69K rating making it suitable for CIP and SIP processes.
FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS:
Heavy Duty: 1100N S/Steel, 1500N Plastic and Die Cast
Medium Duty: 600N S/Steel, 1000N Plastic and Die Cast
(All values quoted are F1Max.)
2NC Safety Outputs overload protected
1NO Auxiliary Output for indication of door open
No moving parts - high switch life and provides resistance
to Shock and Vibration
Offered in: Stainless Steel 316 (with Stainless Steel
Magnet), High Specification and robust Polyester
housings, or Die Cast Metal.
